Are you interested in helping with First Aid during Festival?
We need you!
To be able to be the on duty First Aider, we need you to have a current Senior First Aid certificate or higher.


The festival Chirurgeonate will be operating as normal as it has done in previous years with St John Ambulance manning the Chirurgeonate point during daylight hours from 8.00am to 5.00pm and the Chirurgeons taking over at dusk from 5.00pm to 8.00am on call. The location of the duty Chirurgeon on call will be placed on a white board situated outside the Chirurgeonate point and will be contactable by twoway radio should you require first-aid assistance after hours.  

If any youth members of the populace are cadets of St John, are interested in working with St John atfestival, and have their parents' permission, please contact me and I will put you in touch with St John.
The populace is reminded that if they have a medical condition they should consider notifying the Chirurgeonate on arrival and filling in a confidential medical information form.  Please remember that we are first aiders, so any major medical conditions should be addressed prior to coming to festival.  Other items that the populace should have in their possession at festivalare: Medicare card, private health insurance and ambulance cover if you have it, any medications that they are on, medi-alert bracelet orpendant, a small first-aid kit, hat and sunscreen. Please remember in NSW that ambulance cover is not supplied by the state, and consider signing up for ambulance cover if you do not have it.

Also, if any group or households are willing to help feed the St John Ambulance members attending Rowany Festival this year it would be greatly appreciated.  These members volunteer their own time, and as a simple courtesy to repay their generosity the Chirurgeonate ask for donations of a meal covering Breakfast,Lunch and Dinner for approximately four people. You can nominate which meal/meals and on what day you are able to provide. If you are able to help out  here please let me know ASAP.
